Sole Active Thin Shoe Insoles – Orthotic Arch Support Inserts for Plantar Fasciitis Relief - Mens Size 10/Womens Size 12, 1 Pair

These are my favorite insoles. I've used them for years. They are supportive but not too hard and they have different cushioning thicknesses depending on the shoe type. I use these in sneakers and the thick cushioned ones in hiking boots. For my foot's long arch I have to buy a few sizes bigger than my shoe size, and then cut them down. For my first pair, I tried the oven option to mold them. But for subsequent pairs I found that just putting them right into my shoe was good enough and it would mold to my feet over time. I would recommend trying these in a local store first if you have that option. Many running stores and a certain outdoor store chain usually have them with trial stations set up for you to find your fit. Buying your shoe size might not give you the arch support you need, but you won't know that until you try them out. They are built in a way that they are meant to be cut down to fit your shoe.

This is essentially the same review I've submitted for every style of Sole inserts/footbeds that I have tried. I've tried four styles and I love them all. even the thinnest ones offer excellent arch support so they all work well for me. Got these after suffering from Plantar Fasciitis. They were perfect. I first discovered them in 2016 and haven't worn shoes without putting Sole footbeds in them ever since. Except... I did purchase new shoes recently and ordered new Sole inserts for them but they hadn't arrived yet. I went for a few long walks and very short jogging without them and started getting foot pain. when the Sole inserts arrived I had no more problems. They have excellent arch support. I saw a reviews that say "Life Changing" and "Miracle" which may sound extreme but I fell pretty much the same way. I had custom inserts made for me through the VA (Department of Veterans Affairs) . I tried them for a while and they were better than nothing but I ended up taking them out and using the Sole inserts in every shoe I own. It's good to take them with you when you try on shoes. I have tried the thick, medium, and thin versions of Sole inserts and use all three depending on how much room there is in the shoe. I highly recommend all of the Sole Inserts (Footbeds). They are well worth the investment and will spare your feet from lots of pain. I have tried heat molding them but prefer to just put them in and let them mold naturally to my feet. They last a long time. I've really never worn any out to the point that I through them away. I just bought new ones because I felt like I'd had them so long and moved the older ones to shoes that I rarely wear. I love this product.

My go to inserts to battle plantar fasciitis. Also recommended by by Ortho Surgeon as a terrific alternative to custom insoles. I have mid to high arches. These also add minimum height when in the shoe as opposed to others I have tried. Pricy but well worth it.

Good but lifts foot in shoe. I have very high insteps and not able to wear in all shoes due to the insole lifting my foot too high

Bought these for my son's cleats. They are thinner than several of the other models and provide good arch support and heel cup.

I don't use these for everyday shoes or even backpacking boots but I've used these insoles on all my mountaineering boots over the last 12 years. They made a HUGE difference in how comfortable my first pair of boots were so I've stuck with them ever since. I just bought these for a new pair of ski boots and figured I'd try them in those and they have made a nice difference. I heat molded the ones for all my other boots but didn't make the time to do it on these before using them and they are fine. Heat molding is super easy though so I may take them out and do that soon. I like that these are one piece and don't have a separate heel plate attached like Superfeet as well.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU MOLD THEM IN THE OVEN! I purchased a men's size 12, removed the original insoles from the shoes I intended to use these in, and put these insoles inside. They seemed to fit fine. I read and followed the instructions regarding molding them to your feet by heating the oven to 200 degrees F and placing the insoles inside the oven for two minutes. I did exactly that. I then immediately placed them inside the shoes, and stood up tall in them for two minutes as instructed. When they hardened and molded to my foot, there was WAY TOO MUCH room in the toes from shrinkage. They are not returnable, so I'm stuck with insoles that are at least a half size too small. It's a shame because these seem like they would provide good support. DO NOT mold them in the oven. Just pop them in your shoes and let your body weight and heat from your feet mold them over time. Trust me on this!

Awesome insoles. Buy em and try ‘em

I was looking for something to enhance the arch support on my Sidi mountain bike shoes as the OEM insoles are rubbish. Originally purchased the medium which were too thick so I designated those for a pair of dress shoes. However this thin version fits the cycling shoes perfectly and allows the heel to still fit deep inside the shoe and maintain adequate heel retention. I had to trim a bit off the tops, but that was easy - I just outlined the OEM insole and cut to fit. On the trails the shoe feels way better and I actually noticed about a 5 watt increase in power. I'm no kinesiologist, but I'm assuming with the flatter oem insoles my arch was flexing on the down/power stroke, while with these insoles with more arch support there's less arch flex and it's a more direct power transfer.

Avoid. Not comfortable at all, supposedly a thin sole for sports shoes, thicker than any insoles in any of my sports shoes and less comfortable than the stock ones even when they’ve been through the heat moulding thing. I’ve persisted and tried them for almost two months now with no improvement, time for the bin.

I'm 71 with arthritis everywhere, including my feet. My arches have dropped as well. These insoles can be heat molded to your foot. I didn't do that because all shoes are different. They are supportive and well made. They hold your foot as they were when you had an arch. They are somewhat rigid but in a good way. You can trim them at the toe end. They take some getting used to so go slowly. Once your feet get over the change, you'll never look back. Thin enough to fit most shoes.

Yup they are thin and they did work better than the sole insert that comes with my sneakers.

Moldable to your feet
